First of all, this is my very first home brew. My wife got me a deluxe starter kit from Northern Brew and the American Wheat Ale recipe kit for Christmas.
Question is about the air lock. instructions said to fill with about a tablespoon of the sanitized water before inserting in bung. It has two fill lines, one on both sides of the 'S' shaped lock. Fermentation had started and it seems that some of the water has either evaporated or escaped through fermentation and bubbling over.
Is there any point during fermentation thag if the water is all gone I should add more? Or is it supposed to escape?
